Nah, it's not been a doom thread till now. We were just waiting for a sun-pole-flip for years and it's happening now, just when a tiny comet flies
around which is very interresting.
Bump!
I'm placing a bet to the first offer here. Let's do it like gentlemen - twenty Paypal bucks at 2:1 that we'll see X-class flare until the end of
January.

lol I see what you did there.

If you're right and there is an X class flare it might knock out the power, meaning you can't, and therefore won't, pay.

If someone bets against you and loses, then power will still be available and they will have to pay.

This is interesting because I saw some really strange aurora-like lights in the sky last night that seemed completely out of place toward the south.
But, they only lasted for a second before disappearing. The first one I saw I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me because it was just in my
peripheral vision and by the time I looked directly towards it it was already gone. The second one happened in about the same area around 15 minutes
or so later and I saw it directly in front of me so I don't think it was my eyes playing tricks anymore. Both times it was a green colored glow in the
clear night sky, yet they flashed as quickly as lightning.

I've checked spaceweather and saw this. Does the time fit?

Departing sunspot AR1893 erupted on Nov. 19th, producing an X1-class solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the explosion's
extreme ultraviolet flash at 10:26 UT Although the sunspot is not directly facing Earth, the flare did affect our planet. Mainly, the UV flash
produced a wave of ionization in the upper atmosphere over Europe, Africa and parts of Asia. A brief blackout of HF radio transmissions around the
poles might have also occurred. UPDATE: The explosion hurled a CME into space. But the cloud is not heading toward Earth.

If not then maybe extrasolar radiation caused by weakened solar magnetosphere?

C'mon folks bump this thread a bit. It's an eleven year event. I want ppl to be aware of it.
2nd - Do you feel it?

edit on 20/11/2013 by PapagiorgioCZ because: (no reason given)

No! I'll play like the others and say, no it Can't happen! Nasa told me so!

I do Feel Something! Yet I can not but a finger on it at all! I do know I will still be around though, shame people do say they feel it too. It's
like what? Am I the only one who Feels this? I did try to play it off as Doom Porn, only somehow I know it's more than that.

I'll take your bet though, make it 5 to 1 we have more then 3 X flares before Jan is up! Hate to add the Extra Crap though.

Note: Did you add the radiation coming from Japan also? Surely it won't cancel each other out you think? Best not to play in the snow this year!

I don't think the time fits it. What I saw happened between 9:15PM and 9:45PM EST

Indeed. It's absolutely possible. I wouldnť bet against it.

Let's hope some abnormal magnetic changes won't trigger any major earthquakes and volcanoes. Do we even know whether we need more sunlight or less?
What we don't need is another mini-ice age. Reducing the global temperature by a few degrees usually means the end of civilisations. In the middle of
the climate changes everything matters. Few extra watts of energy in our direction could actually do the job. This 3 miles wide greenish thing could
be a big gamechanger.
